I like this show, but ugh, the fandom annoys me so much. Everyone's so eager to pat themselves on the back for shipping an interracial queer couple, it comes off as horribly condescending. And I say this as part of an interracial queer couple.

amen to that. the people worried about Carlos not being portrayed as "dark" enough bother me too, as I am a really fair-skinned Mexican.

Isn't he described as dark-skinned though?

This is the first time I'm really hearing anything about people patting their backs for shipping a possibly interracial/interspecies queer couple. To me it's just like, they're canon, yay! XD

Same here. I've only seen people just being really into the couple and wondering what exactly their dynamic is since we get so little of Carlos.

I remember seeing a post going around saying that WtNV proves that racism in slash fandom is a myth.

Yes, you are correct. Suddenly all previous gross racism in slash fandom has vanished because one pairing with a Latino character is popular.

The fandom is super annoying. As fast as it came about, it got wanky even faster.
